cheryl: more tax pain. legislation to boost internet sales taxes. peter barnes is standing by. >> i think the last 20 years, cheryl. this legislation has led to a titanic lobbying battle between brick-and-mortar retailers and many internet retailers led by ebay. it appears that it finally passed congress this year. in part because so many states need the revenue so badly. it means you would be required to collect sales taxes nationwide from no more than 9600 tax jurisdictions across the u.s. for brick-and-mortar retailers, we have an app for that. >> they will provide for software from the states to help small businesses comply. we think that online marketplaces like ebay could also serve this function. therefore, we think it would be reasonably easy for many businesses to comply with this law. peter: states say this legislation could help collect $23 billion. california alone could pull in an extra $4 billion a year. the fight right now is really over an exemption small online retailers. ebay is pushing for an exemption of under 10 million or 50 em
